⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘The List of Suspicious Things’ by Jennie Godfrey is an absolutely sensational debut novel and it the best book I have read this year at least!
This novel is set in Yorkshire in the 1970’s in a community rocked to its core by the crimes of the Yorkshire Ripper.
Miv is a young girl and she decides that she needs to find the Yorkshire Ripper and stop him. She enlists the help of her friend Sharon and the List of Suspicious Things begins.
The List is a distraction from Miv’s home life, where her Mum is poorly and the rest of the family are struggling to cope with this.
This book absolutely brims with amazingly developed characters, most of which you come to love.
The book is also brimming with themes and it is done in such a sensitive and caring way.
This is a book that you really can’t put down and that really carries you on a rollercoaster of emotions.
I cannot recommend this book enough and it is a book that has touched me and will stay with me for a long time.
Thank you so much to the author, publisher and NetGalley in allowing me to read in return for a review. I am honoured.
